Synchronising
In the "TimeTwin Digital" process, the power sources are synchronised by means

After the LHSB link has been installed, "Parameter P-C" (power control) will be
available. Parameter P-C is shown on the power source in Set-up Menu - Level 2.
Possible settings: On / oFF
For the "TimeTwin Digital" process, "Parameter P-C" must be set to "On" on both
power sources.

Enabling the
In order to run the "TimeTwin Digital" process, you will need the "TimeTwin Digi-
software
tal" software enablement (Article n° 4,061,110) on both power sources.
After the software has been enabled, and once the LHSB link has been set up,
Parameter t-C (twin control) will be available. Parameter t-C defines the leading
power source. This power source specifies the frequency for the Trailing power
source.
IMPORTANT! The software enablement of the power sources is monitored by the
LHSB link. If one of the power sources has not been enabled, meaning that Para-
meter t-C is not available on this power source, Parameter t-C will not be display-
ed on the other (i.e. enabled) power source either.
Possible settings: On / oFF

Robot interface installed ... Parameter t-C is addressed by the robot control
in such a way that either the first or the second power source acts as the lea-
ding power source, depending on the direction of welding.
On the leading power source, Parameter t-C must be set to "On" via the ro-
bot control.
